SYNOPSIS

DESCRIPTION

The kldload() system call loads a kld file into the kernel using the
kernel linker.

RETURNVALUES

The kldload() system call returns the fileid of the kld file which was
loaded into the kernel. If an error occurs, kldload() will return -1 and
set errno to indicate the error.

ERRORS

The named file is loaded unless:
[EPERM] You do not have access to read the file or link it
with the kernel. You should be the root user to be
able to use the kld system calls.
[EFAULT] Bad address encountered when adding kld info into the
kernel space.
[ENOMEM] There is no memory to load the file into the kernel.
[ENOENT] The file was not found.
[ENOEXEC] The file format of file was unrecognized.
[EEXIST] The supplied file has already been loaded.
